4. The Rough Guide to South Africa, Lesotho & Swaziland June 2002 edition

The Rough Guide to South Africa This is pretty much everything a guide book should be; plenty of detail on the mainstream stuff (like where to stay and eat in Cape Town, how to organize a safari in the Kruger park), but plenty also on the areas off the beaten track. Best of all, the book is unfailingly relevant, avoiding the usual pages of filler on the blindingly obvious. The wealth of background information and the dry, witty style are welcome bonuses. The best recommendation I can give this book is that it quite simply made our holiday much more enjoyable than it would have been ( a reader )
